SCG13965 - Finland 1912 Child Welfare Charity Stamp (Semi-Postal Issue)
1 in stock
This charming early 20th-century Finnish charity stamp, issued in 1912, features a delicate portrait of a young child framed within a wreath of white flowers and green foliage. A prominent star above the portrait symbolizes hope and guidance, reinforcing the humanitarian message of the issue. These stamps were produced to support child welfare initiatives, a theme widely embraced in Nordic countries during this period. The soft halftone portrait combined with bold red framing creates a striking visual contrast typical of early semi-postal designs. Such issues are highly valued for their historical and social significance rather than postal usage alone.
